I worked in a part-time contracted staff position, and the women I worked with were helpful and great.

Cons

I took over for a position that had been full-time but had been cut because of budget reasons. It was pretty unpleasant since I was kept at 19 hours, and it only takes 20 to qualify for part-time benefits.

—University is sorely mismanaged: this is felt on every level—The older building are literally falling apart—No follow-up with department heads—Students are rowdy (lacking emotional maturity for college courses in many cases)
